here's a question for you

[HappyScrappy]

besides water, do you know something that is found in both vomit and the sweat that your feet produce?
it helps produce some of the odor that each have.

Chocolate syrup???

Butyric acid.

Or carrots. Cause you always find carrots in vomit.

project is correct, gotta be the carrots.. lol

I'm quite allergic to carrots. They make my throat swell up.

guess that means you'd better stay away from stinky feet.

I know you're disappointed.

is it me, or does HS have feet that produce vomit?

rock on with your bad self.

thought to help in the cell membrane upkeep, but also part of what inhibitory neurotransmitter?

GABA or gamma amino butyric acid, is an inhibitory neurotransmitter - a chemical involved in nerve regulation which serves to inhibit excessive bioelectrical activity. GABA is the #1 inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain. It is a derivative of the amino acid glutamic acid and is related to the sleep-enhancing biochemical Gamma Hydroxy Butyrate. The function of GABA is to decrease neuron activity and inhibit nerve cells from overfiring. Many studies have found that GABA plugs into and activates anti-anxiety brain receptors. Together with other chemicals, GABA prevents anxiety and stress-related messages from reaching the motor centers of the brain by occupying the receptor sites for these messages. GABA brings to the source what nerves need to stay calm.

Traditional treatment for most types of anxiety disorders are the pharmaceuticals Xanex and Valium which seem to work by stimulating the production of GABA in the brain. The nutrient GABA can be taken to calm the body in much the same way as these pharmaceuticals but without the fear of addiction. Supplemental GABA can quiet anxiety, reduce muscle tensions, help reduce "chatty brain" (incessant thoughts) and induce sleep.

Ironically, too much GABA can cause increased anxiety. Other symptoms of GABA excess are shortness of breath, numbness around the mouth, and tingling in the extremities. Dr. Julian Whitaker, M.D. recommends about 750 mg. per day to his patients. We have found that smaller quantities of GABA taken as sublingual tablets can be as effective as higher dosages swallowed in pills.

taking GABA orally actually won't pass the blood/brain barrier readily, which means you have to take more of it - it will then get converted inside of you to GHB, and then that will easily pass the barrier, then on the other side, gets converted to GABA.

both GHB and alcohol increase the GABA production, which is why they have very similar sensations that they produce when injested.

back to butyric acid - it is the main chemical that insects that prey on mammals use to track them. I was molested by mosquitoes over my vacation/holiday and was also reading a book on neural nets and the two being in my head, it stood out when I saw a thing describing the logic loops that a tick runs - one being the butyric acid detection (the other being heat gradients)
